Who we are:
BASIS International Ltd., is a privately held, multi-national, mature, innovative software development tools and application-building-block manufacturer. We’re growing our software team and are searching for an experienced, self-driven software developer who is keen to work together with an international team for professional clients that may be located around the globe. Our customers range from small to large organizations and use BASIS’ tools and services to run their business-critical systems, in industries including finance, insurance, transportation, hospitality, wholesale, retail, and manufacturing.
The applications in place are based on Business BASIC and Java, mainly written with the BBj toolset from BASIS International. BBj is a professional software development environment used by leading companies in many industries worldwide.
